Memecoins emerged from internet culture, initially gaining popularity for their humor and relatability. What started as fun soon turned into speculation as community support and social media buzz drove prices skyward.
Despite debates over their intrinsic value, memecoins have become a significant cultural phenomenon within the crypto community. They can be viewed as a form of contemporary pop art, reflecting public sentiment at a given time.
Memecoin trading has emerged as a major use case in the crypto ecosystem, driving substantial liquidity and user engagement.
Pump.fun's meteoric rise showcased the memecoin launchpad potential. According to Syncracy research, Pump.fun hit $100M revenue in just 217 days - a record pace. Daily earnings topped $2M at its peak. This trend, which began in the Solana ecosystem, set a new paradigm for memecoin launchpads and sparked the creation of various similar platforms.
Fair Launch refers to a token issuance method that provides equal opportunities to all participants, a principle that memecoin killer launches/launchers have all embraced as their core value.
It took a while for me to finally realize the essence behind a fair launch. It isn't giving the tokens away, it isn't because there was no presale, simply put, it was because everyone had the same advantage, everyone had the same ruleset, there was no secret 'friends and family' round, seed rounds, influencer allocation, there were no whitelists, no capped participation, the rules were provided, and anyone could participate. I finally feel comfortable in saying a fair launch is a launch in which all participants have the same ruleset.
